As a part of studies on the reproduction of laboratory maintained frogs, wild-caught Rana pipiens were ovulated and maintained a t 22-27°C for up to 18 months. Vitellogenic oocytes were periodically staged and counted, and a "maturity index" was calculated to assess the progress of the vitellogenic
Over 30 nuclei have been identified in the reticular formation of rats, but only a small number of distinct reticular nuclei have been recognized in frogs. We used immunohistochemistry, retrograde tracing, and cell morphology to identify nuclei within the brainstem of Rana pipiens. FluoroGold was in
## Abstract Anemias were induced in __Rana pipiens__ hemolytically and by repetitive bleedings. Maximal rates of oxygen consumption ( max) declined with anemia. The pattern of decline in max with anemia did not closely approximate theoretical predictions of systematic oxygen transport. Anemic frogs
## Abstract A lectin histochemical study was carried out to determine the distribution of specific sugars in glycoconjugates within an important osmoregulatory organ, amphibian skin. Paraffin sections were made of __Rana pipiens__ skin from dorsal and ventral regions of aquatic larvae in representa
## Abstract This study investigated the functional contributions of the submentalis muscle to the coordination of feeding behavior in the leopard frog, __Rana pipiens__. Additionally, the anatomical origins of the motor neurons innervating this muscle are identified and described. The m. submentali
